Described and illustrated in the Catálogo Monumental de Navarra (1990?- ); described in Domeño: Romanesque baptismal font; cylindrical basin ornamented with a blind arcade of round arches; the cylindrical stem of the base is plain; square lower base with ball motif at the front corners. The font is raised on circular plinth and placed in a niche of the wall. The plain flat wooden cover is modern, hinged about 2/3 back. Described and and illustrated in the Enciclopedia del románico en Navarra (2008) notes its similarity with several other fonts in Navarra [cf. CognateFonts], and suggests a date in the early 13th century. The font is partly built into an alcove of the north wall beneath the west gallery. Simeón Hidalgo Valencia (e-mail of 2 May 2014 to BSI) suggets the existence of a workshop in the valleys of Izagaondoa, Lizoáin, Unciti and Urraúl Bajo, which would include the fonts at Artáiz, Cemboráin, Grez, Idoate, Lérruz, Najurieta, Reta, Zuazu, and others in the area.
